    C3: tranny stamping?

    I'm not a C3 guy, but a friend of mine looked at a C3 (69) but couldn't find any VIN stamping on the transmission. He wasn't sure where to look and there is a fair amount of oil build up on it. Can someone tell me where he should look for the VIN stamping on a manual tranny for a 69?

    Thanks and I'll pass it along.

    Tony----

    The stamping on C3 Muncie transmissions is located in the same place as earlier Muncies-----the passenger side, rear vertical surface of the main case.

    If the tranmssion was originally installed in a Corvette (or, other passenger car) there will be a VIN derivative in addition to the "P"-prefix transmission production code. If it was a complete assembly purchased over the counter, there will be the production code, but no VIN derivative. If the main case was replaced with a SERVICE case, there will be no stampings, at all.
